I'm thinking about using FreeBSD to setup a PPP server. However, I don't where ppp handles IP pools. I know that you can specify a subnet for the client IP negotiation, but is ppp smart enough to not give out addresses in use by other instances of ppp? I guess ppp could walk the list of already active tunX interfaces, to determine what IPs in the subnet have already been assigned? Are people running large PPP servers on FreeBSD? By large, I'm thinking 100+ simultaneous PPP sessions. Tom To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
